Distributed Denial of Service Attack

(1/2) > >>

Shadow03:
Over the last few days, my forum has had an average of 500 guests online at once, and the most its ever reached was 1000.

Before this week, the average number of guests we have had online at once was about 10, and the most was like 40. The cause of this problem was a DDOS, and I believe it was a result of someone exploiting my SMF 2 Beta 4. What should I do?

Antechinus:
DDOS is not a 2b4 exploit. It can be done to any site regardless of the software.

Shadow03:
Alright, thanks! But how would I fix this problem when its done to SMF?

Bigguy:
It is done to the server, not done to SMF.

Antechinus:
I think the title of this thread could be edited to something a little less melodramatic.
